Working within existing key definitions, I'm not sure this solves that particular problem, the building key doesn't "imply the usage. If something is built as a house, but now it happens to be a pub without major modifications made, you should still tag it as building=house." So assuming this refers to external modification, an old brewery that has been converted to apartments could still be tagged as building=brewery. So we need to combine it with something that actually describes the use of the building. craft=brewery would seem like the best fit but is limited to "for small production on demand and by order.", it could probably be stretched to cover most real ale breweries, perhaps with an industry=brewery to describe the large volume producers? > To cover all these establishments should we have an "industry sector" tag > industry=alcohol or commercial=alcohol? Perhaps alcoholic_beverage would be > better to distinguish it from industrial alcohol? > How to distinguish real ale from industrial mass market breweries?

Opening hours could do it maybe? Opening hours + tourism=attraction? > How to list awards e.g CAMRA Pub of the Year 2010 Is this getting towards something better suited to a separate database? If not, perhaps someone active in a CAMRA chapter can suggest a schema? This seems like a very rewarding winter mapping project :) Craig _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
